It’s been a rough start to the season for Iowa basketball. They’re 3-4 with three wins over mid-majors they should beat and four losses against teams that would have helped boost their résumé come March. Now, without Tyler Cook, Iowa faces many obstacles over the next three weeks.
Iowa will be back home after two games in Florida for the Emerald Coast Classic and their first true road game against Notre Dame as part of the ACC/Big Ten Challenge.
The Hawkeyes host the Omaha Mavericks, a team that many expect them to blowout even without Cook.
